LOS ANGELES, CA. (THECOUNT) — Robert Forster, the Oscar-nominated actor who famously played a bail bondsman in Quentin Tarantino Jackie Brown, has died. He was 78.
Forster died on Friday at his Los Angeles home from brain cancer, his publicist told The Hollywood Reporter.
With his chiseled good looks, steely chin and earnest gaze, Forster exuded a raw truthfulness. He made his film debut opposite Marlon Brando and Elizabeth Taylor in John Huston’s Reflections in a Golden Eye (1967), then sparkled as an ethically challenged cameraman in Haskell Wexler’s ultra-realistic Medium Cool (1969), reports THR.
After Jackie Brown, Forster was inundated with offers and worked in such films as Psycho (1998), Me, Myself and Irene (2000), Mulholland Drive (2001), Human Nature (2001), Like Mike (2002), Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle (2003), Firewall (2006), Lucky Number Slevin (2006) and The Descendants (2011).
